Abstract
Retrograde transport from endosomes to the trans-Golgi network is essential for recycling of protein and lipid cargoes to counterbalance anterograde membrane traffic. Protein cargo subjected to retrograde traffic include lysosomal acid-hydrolase receptors, SNARE proteins, processing enzymes, nutrient transporters, a variety of other transmembrane proteins, and some extracellular non-host proteins such as viral, plant, and bacterial toxins. Efficient delivery of these protein cargo molecules depends on sorting machineries selectively recognizing and concentrating them for their directed retrograde transport from endosomal compartments. In this review, we outline the different retrograde transport pathways governed by various sorting machineries involved in endosome-to-TGN transport. In addition, we discuss how this transport route can be analyzed experimentally.

Abstract
Glycosylation is the most abundant and diverse form of post-translational modification of proteins that is common to all eukaryotic cells. Enzymatic glycosylation of proteins involves a complex metabolic network and different types of glycosylation pathways that orchestrate enormous amplification of the proteome in producing diversity of proteoforms and its biological functions. The tremendous structural diversity of glycans attached to proteins poses analytical challenges that limit exploration of specific functions of glycosylation. Major advances in quantitative transcriptomics, proteomics and nuclease-based gene editing are now opening new global ways to explore protein glycosylation through analysing and targeting enzymes involved in glycosylation processes. In silico models predicting cellular glycosylation capacities and glycosylation outcomes are emerging, and refined maps of the glycosylation pathways facilitate genetic approaches to address functions of the vast glycoproteome. These approaches apply commonly available cell biology tools, and we predict that use of (single-cell) transcriptomics, genetic screens, genetic engineering of cellular glycosylation capacities and custom design of glycoprotein therapeutics are advancements that will ignite wider integration of glycosylation in general cell biology.

Abstract
Several mechanisms allow for cargo internalization into cells within membrane-bound endocytic carriers. How these internalization processes couple to specific pathways of intracellular distribution remains poorly explored. Here, we review uptake reactions that are independent of the conventional clathrin machinery. We discuss how these link to retrograde trafficking from endosomes to the Golgi apparatus and exemplify biological situations in which the polarized secretion capacity of the Golgi apparatus allows for retrograde cargoes to be delivered to specialized areas of the plasma membrane, such as the leading edge of migratory cells or the immunological synapse of immune cells. We also address the evidence that allows to position apicobasal polarity of epithelial cells in this context. The underlying theme is thereby the functional coupling between specific types of endocytosis to intracellular retrograde trafficking for protein cargoes that need to be localized in a highly polarized and dynamic manner to plasmalemmal subdomains.

Abstract
Protein and membrane trafficking pathways are critical for cell and tissue homeostasis. Traditional genetic and biochemical approaches have shed light on basic principles underlying these processes. However, the list of factors required for secretory pathway function remains incomplete, and mechanisms involved in their adaptation poorly understood. Here, we present a powerful strategy based on a pooled genome-wide CRISPRi screen that allowed the identification of new factors involved in protein transport. Two newly identified factors, TTC17 and CCDC157, localized along the secretory pathway and were found to interact with resident proteins of ER-Golgi membranes. In addition, we uncovered that upon TTC17 knockdown, the polarized organization of Golgi cisternae was altered, creating glycosylation defects, and that CCDC157 is an important factor for the fusion of transport carriers to Golgi membranes. In conclusion, our work identified and characterized new actors in the mechanisms of protein transport and secretion and opens stimulating perspectives for the use of our platform in physiological and pathological contexts.

Abstract
Recycling of internalized membrane proteins back to the cell surface controls diverse cellular processes. MacDonald and Piper genetically dissect a recycling pathway in yeast to reveal a cohort of novel and conserved factors, including the Rag GTPases, which contribute to metabolic control by regulating surface recycling independently of TORC1 signaling. Endocytosed cell surface membrane proteins rely on recycling pathways for their return to the plasma membrane. Although endosome-to-plasma membrane recycling is critical for many cellular processes, much of the required machinery is unknown. We discovered that yeast has a recycling route from endosomes to the cell surface that functions efficiently after inactivation of the sec7-1 allele of Sec7, which controls transit through the Golgi. A genetic screen based on an engineered synthetic reporter that exclusively follows this pathway revealed that recycling was subject to metabolic control through the Rag GTPases Gtr1 and Gtr2, which work downstream of the exchange factor Vam6. Gtr1 and Gtr2 control the recycling pathway independently of TORC1 regulation through the Gtr1 interactor Ltv1. We further show that the early-endosome recycling route and its control though the Vam6>Gtr1/Gtr2>Ltv1 pathway plays a physiological role in regulating the abundance of amino acid transporters at the cell surface.

Abstract
Sorting internalized proteins and lipids back to the cell surface controls the supply of molecules throughout the cell and regulates integral membrane protein activity at the surface. One central process in mammalian cells is the transit of cargo from endosomes back to the plasma membrane (PM) directly, along a route that bypasses retrograde movement to the Golgi. Despite recognition of this pathway for decades we are only beginning to understand the machinery controlling this overall process. The budding yeastSaccharomyces cerevisiae, a stalwart genetic system, has been routinely used to identify fundamental proteins and their modes of action in conserved trafficking pathways. However, the study of cell surface recycling from endosomes in yeast is hampered by difficulties that obscure visualization of the pathway. Here we briefly discuss how recycling is likely a more prevalent process in yeast than is widely appreciated and how tools might be built to better study the pathway.

Abstract
Retromer mediates sequence-directed cargo exit from endosomes to support both endosome-to-Golgi (retrograde transport) and endosome-to-plasma membrane (recycling) itineraries. It is not known whether these trafficking functions require cargos to exit endosomes separately via distinct transport intermediates or whether the same retromer-coated carriers can support both itineraries. We addressed this question by comparing human Wntless (Wls) and β2 adrenergic receptor (β2AR), which require retromer physiologically for retrograde transport and recycling, respectively. We show here by direct visualization in living cells that both cargos transit primarily the same endosomes and exit via shared transport vesicles generated from a retromer-coated endosome domain. While both Wls and β2AR clearly localize to the same retromer-coated endosome domains, Wls is consistently enriched more strongly. This enrichment difference is determined by distinct motifs present in the cytoplasmic tail of each cargo, with Wls using tandem Φ-X-[L/M] motifs and β2AR using a PDZ motif. Exchanging these determinants reverses the enrichment phenotype of each cargo but does not change cargo itinerary, verifying the multifunctional nature of retromer and implying that additional sorting must occur downstream. Quantitative differences in the degree of cargo enrichment instead underlie a form of kinetic sorting that impacts the rate of cargo delivery via both itineraries and determines the ability of β2AR to activate its cognate G protein transducer locally from endosomes. We propose that mammalian retromer forms a multifunctional membrane coat that supports shared cargo exit for divergent trafficking itineraries and regulates signaling from endosomes.

Abstract
Several exogenous and endogenous cargo proteins are internalized independently of clathrin, including the bacterial Shiga toxin. The mechanisms underlying early steps of clathrin-independent uptake remain largely unknown. In this study, we have designed a protocol to obtain gradient fractions containing Shiga toxin internalization intermediates. Using stable isotope labeling with amino acids in cell culture (SILAC) and quantitative mass spectrometry, Rab12 was found in association with these very early uptake carriers. The localization of the GTPase on Shiga toxin-induced plasma membrane invaginations was shown by fluorescence microscopy in cells transfected with GFP-Rab12. Furthermore, using a quantitative biochemical assay, it was found that the amount of receptor-binding B-subunit of Shiga toxin reaching the trans-Golgi/TGN membranes was decreased in Rab12-depleted cells, and that cells were partially protected against intoxication by Shiga-like toxin 1 under these conditions. These findings demonstrate the functional importance of Rab12 for retrograde toxin trafficking. Among several other intracellular transport pathways, only the steady-state localizations of TGN46 and cation-independent mannose-6-phosphate receptor were affected. These data thus strongly suggest that Rab12 functions in the retrograde transport route.

Abstract
We have developed a chemical biology strategy to identify proteins that follow the retrograde transport route from the plasma membrane to the Golgi apparatus, via endosomes. The general principle is the following: plasma membrane proteins are covalently tagged with a first probe. Only the ones that are then transported to trans-Golgi/TGN membranes are covalently bound to a capture reagent that has been engineered into this compartment. Specifically, the first probe is benzylguanine (BG) that is conjugated onto primary amino groups of plasma-membrane proteins. The capture reagent includes an O(6)-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase-derived fragment, the SNAP-tag, which forms a covalent linkage with BG. The SNAP-tag is fused to the GFP-tagged Golgi membrane anchor from galactosyl transferase for proper targeting to trans-Golgi/TGN membranes. Cell-surface BG-tagged proteins that are transported to trans-Golgi/TGN membranes (i.e., that are retrograde cargoes) are thereby covalently captured by the SNAP-tag fusion protein. For identification, the latter is immunopurified using GFP-Trap, and associated retrograde cargo proteins are identified by mass spectrometry. We here provide a step-by-step protocol of this method.

Abstract
Cholera toxin enters cells via an unusual pathway that involves trafficking through endosomes to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Whether the toxin induces its own pathway or travels along a physiological retrograde route is not known. To study its trafficking, we labeled cholera toxin B (CTB) or endogenous plasma membrane proteins with a small chemical compound, benzylguanine, which covalently reacts with the protein SNAP-tag. Using ER-targeted SNAP-tag as reporter, we found that transport of CTB to the ER depends on dynamin-2 and syntaxin 5. Plasma membrane proteins and a fluid-phase marker added to the medium were also transported to the ER. This flux was not affected by exposing cells to CTB but was inhibited by depleting syntaxin 5 and increased by depleting dynamin-2. As a control for confined intracellular localization of ER-targeted SNAP-tag we used adenovirus-5, which traffics to endosomes and then escapes into the cytosol. The virus did not react with ER-targeted SNAP but with cytosolic SNAP. Together, our results establish a new method (SNAP-trap) to study trafficking of different cargo to the ER and the cytosol and provide evidence for the existence of a constitutive pathway from the cell surface to the ER.

Abstract
Proteomics is a powerful technique for protein identification at large scales. A number of proteomics approaches have been developed to study the steady state composition of intracellular compartments. Here, we report a novel vectorial proteomics strategy to identify plasma membrane proteins that undergo retrograde transport to the trans-Golgi network (TGN). This strategy is based on the covalent modification of the plasma membrane proteome with a membrane impermeable benzylguanine derivative. Benzylguanine-tagged plasma membrane proteins that are subsequently targeted to the retrograde route are covalently captured by a TGN-localized SNAP-tagged fusion protein, which allows for their identification. The approach was validated step-by-step using a well explored retrograde cargo protein, the B-subunit of Shiga toxin. It was then extended to the proteomics format. Among other hits we found one of the historically first identified cargo proteins that undergo retrograde transport, which further validated our approach. Most of the other hits were kinases, receptors or transporters. In conclusion, we have pioneered a vectorial proteomics approach that complements traditional methods for the study of retrograde protein trafficking. This approach is of generic nature and could in principle be extended to other endocytic pathways.

Abstract
The human neuraminidases (NEU) consist of a family of four isoforms (NEU1-NEU4). Members of this enzyme family are proposed to have important roles in health and disease through regulation of the composition of cellular sialosides. The NEU3 isoform is a membrane-associated enzyme that cleaves glycolipid substrates. However, few reports have examined the substrate specificity of the enzyme for non-natural substrates. We report here a series of 11 synthetic trisaccharides that feature modifications of the aglycone or the Neu5Ac residue of an octyl β-sialyllactoside. The time course of substrate cleavage by NEU3 was monitored using an electrospray ionization mass spectrometry assay to obtain relative rates (k(rel)). We observed that NEU3 substrate activity was directly dependent upon the hydrophobicity of the aglycone but had no apparent requirement for features of the ceramide headgroup. We also observed that trisaccharides with incorporated azide groups in the Neu5Ac residue at either C9 or the N5-Ac position were substrates, and in the case of the N5-azidoacetyl derivative, the activity was superior to that of GM3. However, the incorporation of larger aryl groups was tolerated only at C9, but not at N5-Ac. We propose a two-site model for enzyme recognition, requiring interaction at both the Neu5Ac residue and the hydrophobic aglycone.

Abstract
Some proteins and lipids traffic from the plasma membrane to the trans Golgi network (TGN)/Golgi apparatus and the endoplasmic reticulum, via the retrograde transport route. Endosomes are an obligatory through station. Whether early, recycling and late endosomes all hand off material to the TGN have remained a matter of debate. In this review, we give a short historical overview on how retrograde transport was discovered and explored. We then summarize and critically discuss data that have been put forward in favour of the existence of trafficking interfaces between each of the different endocytic localizations and the TGN. We finally point out some conceptual and technological challenges that will have to be met to establish definite conclusions for each of these scenarios.

Abstract
The retrograde transport route links early endosomes and the TGN. Several endogenous and exogenous cargo proteins use this pathway, one of which is the well-explored bacterial Shiga toxin. ADP-ribosylation factors (Arfs) are approximately 20 kDa GTP-binding proteins that are required for protein traffic at the level of the Golgi complex and early endosomes. In this study, we expressed mutants and protein fragments that bind to Arf-GTP to show that Arf1, but not Arf6 is required for transport of Shiga toxin from early endosomes to the TGN. We depleted six Arf1-specific ARF-GTPase-activating proteins and identified AGAP2 as a crucial regulator of retrograde transport for Shiga toxin, cholera toxin and the endogenous proteins TGN46 and mannose 6-phosphate receptor. In AGAP2-depleted cells, Shiga toxin accumulates in transferrin-receptor-positive early endosomes, suggesting that AGAP2 functions in the very early steps of retrograde sorting. A number of other intracellular trafficking pathways are not affected under these conditions. These results establish that Arf1 and AGAP2 have key trafficking functions at the interface between early endosomes and the TGN.

Proteins use multiple routes for transport from endosomes to the Golgi complex. Shiga and cholera toxins and TGN38/46 are routed from early and recycling endosomes, while mannose 6-phosphate receptors are routed from late endosomes. The identification of distinct molecular requirements for each of these pathways makes it clear that mammalian cells have evolved more complex targeting mechanisms and routes than previously anticipated.

Abstract
Hemojuvelin (HJV) was recently identified as a critical regulator of iron homeostasis. It is either associated with cell membranes through a glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor or released as a soluble form. Membrane-anchored HJV acts as a coreceptor for bone morphogenetic proteins and activates the transcription of hepcidin, a hormone that regulates iron efflux from cells. Soluble HJV antagonizes bone morphogenetic protein signaling and suppresses hepcidin expression. In this study, we examined the trafficking and processing of HJV. Cellular HJV reached the plasma membrane without obtaining complex oligosaccharides, indicating that HJV avoided Golgi processing. Secreted HJV, in contrast, has complex oligosaccharides and can be derived from HJV with high-mannose oligosaccharides at the plasma membrane. Our results support a model in which retrograde trafficking of HJV before cleavage is the predominant processing pathway. Release of HJV requires it to bind to the transmembrane receptor neogenin. Neogenin does not, however, play a role in HJV trafficking to the cell surface, suggesting that it could be involved either in retrograde trafficking of HJV or in cleavage leading to HJV release.

Abstract
In the biosynthetic-secretory route from the rough endoplasmic reticulum, across the pre-Golgi intermediate compartments, the Golgi apparatus stacks, trans Golgi network, and post-Golgi organelles, anterograde transport is accompanied and counterbalanced by retrograde traffic of both membranes and contents. In the physiologic dynamics of cells, retrograde flow is necessary for retrieval of molecules that escaped from their compartments of function, for keeping the compartments' balances, and maintenance of the functional integrities of organelles and compartments along the secretory route, for repeated use of molecules, and molecule repair. Internalized molecules may be transported in retrograde direction along certain sections of the secretory route, and compartments and machineries of the secretory pathway may be misused by toxins. An important example is the toxin of Shigella dysenteriae, which has been shown to travel from the cell surface across endosomes, and the Golgi apparatus en route to the endoplasmic reticulum, and the cytosol, where it exerts its deleterious effects. Most importantly in medical research, knowledge about the retrograde cellular pathways is increasingly being utilized for the development of strategies for targeted delivery of drugs to the interior of cells. Multiple details about the molecular transport machineries involved in retrograde traffic are known; a high number of the molecular constituents have been characterized, and the complicated fine structural architectures of the compartments involved become more and more visible. However, multiple contradictions exist, and already established traffic models again are in question by contradictory results obtained with diverse cell systems, and/or different techniques. Additional problems arise by the fact that the conditions used in the experimental protocols frequently do not reflect the physiologic situations of the cells. Regular and pathologic situations often are intermingled, and experimental treatments by themselves change cell organizations. This review addresses physiologic and pathologic situations, tries to correlate results obtained by different cell biologic techniques, and asks questions, which may be the basis and starting point for further investigations.

Abstract
Transferrin receptor 2 (TfR2) is a homologue of transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1), the protein that delivers iron to cells through receptor-mediated endocytosis of diferric transferrin (Fe(2)Tf). TfR2 also binds Fe(2)Tf, but it seems to function primarily in the regulation of systemic iron homeostasis. In contrast to TfR1, the trafficking of TfR2 within the cell has not been extensively characterized. Previously, we showed that Fe(2)Tf increases TfR2 stability, suggesting that trafficking of TfR2 may be regulated by interaction with its ligand. In the present study, therefore, we sought to identify the mode of TfR2 degradation, to characterize TfR2 trafficking, and to determine how Fe(2)Tf stabilizes TfR2. Stabilization of TfR2 by bafilomycin implies that TfR2 traffics to the lysosome for degradation. Confocal microscopy reveals that treatment of cells with Fe(2)Tf increases the fraction of TfR2 localizing to recycling endosomes and decreases the fraction of TfR2 localizing to late endosomes. Mutational analysis of TfR2 shows that the mutation G679A, which blocks TfR2 binding to Fe(2)Tf, increases the rate of receptor turnover and prevents stabilization by Fe(2)Tf, indicating a direct role of Fe(2)Tf in TfR2 stabilization. The mutation Y23A in the cytoplasmic domain of TfR2 inhibits its internalization and degradation, implicating YQRV as an endocytic motif.

Abstract
A subset of intracellular transmembrane proteins such as acid-hydrolase receptors, processing peptidases and SNAREs, as well as extracellular protein toxins such as Shiga toxin and ricin, undergoes 'retrograde' transport from endosomes to the trans-Golgi network. Here, we discuss recent studies that have begun to unravel the molecular machinery that is involved in this process. We also propose a central role for a 'tubular endosomal network' in sorting to recycling pathways that lead not only to the trans-Golgi network but also to different plasma-membrane domains and to specialized storage vesicles.

Abstract
Acidification of some organelles, including the Golgi complex, lysosomes, secretory granules, and synaptic vesicles, is important for many of their biochemical functions. In addition, acidic pH in some compartments is also required for the efficient sorting and trafficking of proteins and lipids along the biosynthetic and endocytic pathways. Despite considerable study, however, our understanding of how pH modulates membrane traffic remains limited. In large part, this is due to the diversity of methods to perturb and monitor pH, as well as to the difficulties in isolating individual transport steps within the complex pathways of membrane traffic. This review summarizes old and recent evidence for the role of acidification at various steps of biosynthetic and endocytic transport in mammalian cells. We describe the mechanisms by which organelle pH is regulated and maintained, as well as how organelle pH is monitored and quantitated. General principles that emerge from these studies as well as future directions of interest are discussed.

Abstract
Growth factor withdrawal results in the endocytosis and degradation of transporter proteins for glucose and amino acids. Here, we show that this process is under the active control of the small GTPase Rab7. In the presence of growth factor, Rab7 inhibition had no effect on nutrient transporter expression. In growth factor-deprived cells, however, blocking Rab7 function prevented the clearance of glucose and amino acid transporter proteins from the cell surface. When Rab7 was inhibited, growth factor deprived cells maintained their mitochondrial membrane potential and displayed prolonged, growth factor-independent, nutrient-dependent cell survival. Thus, Rab7 functions as a proapoptotic protein by limiting cell-autonomous nutrient uptake. Consistent with this, dominant-negative Rab7 cooperated with E1A to promote the transformation of p53(-/-) mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). These results suggest that proteins that limit nutrient transporter expression function to prevent cell-autonomous growth and survival.

Abstract
HFE, the protein mutated in hereditary haemochromatosis type 1, is known to interact with the transferrin receptor (TfR) on the cell surface and during endocytosis [Gross, Irrinki, Feder and Enns (1998) J. Biol. Chem. 273, 22068-22074; Roy, Penny, Feder and Enns (1999) J. Biol. Chem. 274, 9022-9028]. However, whether they are capable of interacting with each other once inside the cell is not known. In the present study we present several lines of evidence that they do interact in endosome compartments. Cells expressing a chimaera of HFE protein with the cytoplasmic domain of lysosomal-associated membrane protein 1 (LAMP1) in place of its own (HFE-LAMP) show a decrease in the half-life of the TfR. This implies that the interaction between HFE and TfR in endosomes targets the TfR to lysosomal compartments. The interaction between TfR and HFE-LAMP was confirmed by immunoprecipitation, in addition to immunofluorescence studies. Addition of transferrin (Tf) to HFE-LAMP-expressing cells competes with HFE for binding to the TfR, thereby increasing the half-life of TfR and confirming that the HFE-LAMP-TfR complex reaches the cell surface prior to entering the endosomal vesicles and trafficking to the lysosome. These results raise the possibility that interaction of HFE and TfR in intracellular vesicles may play an important role in determining the function of HFE in iron homoeostasis, which is still unknown. Analysis of endosomal pH and the iron content of internalized Tf indicated that HFE does not appear to alter the unloading of iron from Tf in the endosome.

Abstract
CD26/DPPIV can be considered a moonlighting protein because it is a multifunctional protein that exerts its different functions depending on cell type and intra- or extracellular conditions in which it is expressed. In the present review, we summarize all its known functions in relation to physiological and pathophysiological conditions. The protein is a proteolytic enzyme, receptor, costimulatory protein, and is involved in adhesion and apoptosis. The CD26/DPPIV protein plays a major role in immune response. Abnormal expression is found in the case of autoimmune diseases, HIV-related diseases and cancer. Natural substrates for CD26/DPPIV are involved in immunomodulation, psycho/neuronal modulation and physiological processes in general. Therefore, targeting of CD26/ DPPIV and especially its proteolytic activity has many therapeutic potentials. On the other hand, there are homologous proteins with overlapping proteolytic activity, which thus may prevent specific modulation of CD26/DPPIV. In conclusion, CD26/DPPIV is a protein present both in various cellular compartments and extracellularly where it exerts different functions and thus is a true moonlighting protein.

Abstract
The ectodomain of the human transferrin receptor (TfR) is released as soluble TfR into the blood by cleavage within a stalk. The major cleavage site is located C-terminally of Arg-100; alternative cleavage sites are also present. Since the cleavage process is still unclear, we looked for proteases involved in TfR ectodomain release. In the supernatant of U937 histiocytic cells we detected alternatively cleaved TfR (at Glu-110). In membrane fractions of these cells we identified two distinct proteolytic activities responsible for TfR cleavage within the stalk at either Val-108 or Lys-95. Both activities could be inhibited by serine protease inhibitors, but not by inhibitors of any other class of proteases. Protein purification yielded a 28 kDa protein that generated the Val-108 terminus. The protease activity could be ascribed to neutrophil elastase according to the substrate specificity determined by amino acid substitution analysis of synthetic peptides, an inhibitor profile, the size of the protease and the use of specific antibodies. The results of analogous experiments suggest that the second activity is represented by another serine protease, cathepsin G. Thus, membrane-associated forms of neutrophil elastase and cathepsin G may be involved in alternative TfR shedding in U937 cells.

Abstract
A yeast two-hybrid screen identified a specific interaction between the cytoplasmic domain of transferrin receptor (TfR) and GABARAP, a 14 kDa protein that binds to the gamma2 subunit of neuronal GABA(A) receptors. The specificity of the TfR-GABARAP interaction was demonstrated by in vitro binding assays with purified proteins and by co-immunoprecipitation of GABARAP with endogenous TfR from HeLa cell lysates. Replacement of the YTRF internalization motif with ATRA within the cytoplasmic domain of TfR reduced interaction with GABARAP in the yeast two-hybrid screen and in vitro binding assays. The intracellular location of GABARAP using chimeric GABARAP-GFP showed that the majority of GABARAP was located in perinuclear vesicles. Our results show that GABARAP plays a more general role outside the confines of neuronal cells and GABA(A) receptors.

Abstract
Amyloid beta protein, the major component of the senile plaques in Alzheimer's disease, is generated by secretory and endocytic processing of amyloid precursor protein. Internalized amyloid precursor protein either recycles to the plasma membrane, where alpha-secretase resides, or moves to acidic compartment(s) for beta-secretase exposure. While the trans-Golgi network contains beta-secretase activity, recent examination of the subcellular distribution of this proteinase, called BACE, has led to the suggestion that beta-secretase activity might also reside at the plasma membrane and in endosomes. To examine the role of endocytic compartments in beta-secretase processing of amyloid precursor protein, the wild-type and endosomal sorting mutant P-selectin cytoplasmic domains were used to control movement of amyloid precursor protein through endosomes. Amyloid precursor protein/P-selectin, which is sorted from early to late endosomes, undergoes significantly less alpha-secretase cleavage, and more beta-secretase cleavage, than amyloid precursor protein/P-selectin768A, a mutant that recycles more efficiently to the cell surface. Our results demonstrate that endosomal sorting influences relative exposure of the amyloid precursor protein/P-selectin chimeras to alpha- and beta-secretase activities, and suggest that, because delivery to late endocytic compartments favors beta-secretase processing of amyloid precursor protein, there is likely limited beta-secretase activity in early endosomes or at the cell surface. We propose that the trans-Golgi network may be involved in both secretory and endocytic generation of amyloid beta protein.

Abstract
Germ line gene disruption and gene insertion are often used to study the function of selected genes in vivo. We used selected knockout and transgenic mouse models to attempt to identify lipoprotein-related genes and gene products that regulate the process of intravenous cationic liposome-DNA complex (CLDC)-based gene delivery. Several observations suggested that proteins involved in lipoprotein metabolism might be important in influencing the delivery and/or expression of CLDC. First, in vitro transfection of either K562 or CHO cells by CLDCs was enhanced by the presence of a functional low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR). Second, pretreatment of mice with 4-aminopyrazolopyrimidine (4APP), an agent that alters lipoprotein profiles in mice, significantly decreased expression of luciferase (luc) after intravenous injection of CLDC-luc complexes in mice. Therefore, we tested mouse model systems either deficient for, or overexpressing, selected genes involved in lipoprotein metabolism, for their potential to regulate intravenous, CLDC-based gene delivery. Although homozygous knockout mutation in the apoE gene caused a significant decrease in gene expression in many tissues of apoE-deficient mice, mice with homozygous deletion of both the apoE and LDLR genes showed wild-type levels of gene transfer efficiency. Thus, a secondary event, produced by homozygous deletion of apoE, but compensated for by the concomitant deletion of LDLR, and/or effects resulting from strain-related, genetic background differences, appeared to play a significant role in mediating intravenous, CLDC-based gene delivery. Secondary alterations resulting from germ line knockouts, as well as epigenetic effects produced by strain differences, may limit the ability to assign specific, gene transfer-related functions to the deleted gene.

Abstract
The neonatal Fc receptor, FcRn, transports immunoglobulin G across intestinal cells in suckling rats. FcRn enters these cells by endocytosis and is present on the apical and basolateral surfaces. We investigated the roles of aromatic amino acids and a dileucine motif in the cytoplasmic domain of rat FcRn. We expressed mutant FcRn in which alanine replaced Trp-311, Leu-322, and Leu-323, or Phe-340 in the inner medullary collecting duct cell line IMCD. Individual replacement of the aromatic amino acids or the dileucine motif only partially blocked endocytosis of (125)I-Fc, whereas uptake by FcRn containing alanine residues in place of both Trp-311 and the dileucine motif was reduced to the level obtained with the tailless receptor. Leu-314 was required for the function of the tryptophan-based endocytosis signal, and Asp-317 and Asp-318 were required for the dileucine-based signal. Nonvectorial delivery of newly synthesized FcRn to the two cell surfaces was unaffected by loss of the endocytosis signals. However, the steady-state distribution of endocytosis mutants was predominantly apical, unlike wild-type FcRn, which was predominantly basolateral. This shift appeared to arise because the loss of endocytosis signals inhibited apical to basolateral transcytosis of FcRn more than basolateral to apical transcytosis.

Abstract
Several GTPases of the Rab family, known to be regulators of membrane traffic between organelles, have been described and localized to various intracellular compartments. Rab11 has previously been reported to be associated with the pericentriolar recycling compartment, post-Golgi vesicles, and the trans-Golgi network (TGN). We compared the effect of overexpression of wild-type and mutant forms of Rab11 on the different intracellular transport steps in the endocytic/degradative and the biosynthetic/exocytic pathways in HeLa cells. We also studied transport from endosomes to the Golgi apparatus using the Shiga toxin B subunit (STxB) and TGN38 as reporter molecules. Overexpression of both Rab11 wild-type (Rab11wt) and mutants altered the localization of the transferrrin receptor (TfR), internalized Tf, the STxB, and TGN38. In cells overexpressing Rab11wt and in a GTPase-deficient Rab11 mutant (Rab11Q70L), these proteins were found in vesicles showing characteristics of sorting endosomes lacking cellubrevin (Cb). In contrast, they were redistributed into an extended tubular network, together with Cb, in cells overexpressing a dominant negative mutant of Rab11 (Rab11S25N). This tubularized compartment was not accessible to Tf internalized at temperatures <20 degrees C, suggesting that it is of recycling endosomal origin. Overexpression of Rab11wt, Rab11Q70L, and Rab11S25N also inhibited STxB and TGN38 transport from endosomes to the TGN. These results suggest that Rab11 influences endosome to TGN trafficking primarily by regulating membrane distribution inside the early endosomal pathway.

Abstract
Prior studies on receptor recycling through late endosomes and the TGN have suggested that such traffic may be largely limited to specialized proteins that reside in these organelles. We present evidence that efficient recycling along this pathway is functionally important for nonresident proteins. P-selectin, a transmembrane cell adhesion protein involved in inflammation, is sorted from recycling cell surface receptors (e.g., low density lipoprotein [LDL] receptor) in endosomes, and is transported from the cell surface to the TGN with a half-time of 20-25 min, six to seven times faster than LDL receptor. Native P-selectin colocalizes with LDL, which is efficiently transported to lysosomes, for 20 min after internalization, but a deletion mutant deficient in endosomal sorting activity rapidly separates from the LDL pathway. Thus, P-selectin is sorted from LDL receptor in early endosomes, driving P-selectin rapidly into late endosomes. P-selectin then recycles to the TGN as efficiently as other receptors. Thus, the primary effect of early endosomal sorting of P-selectin is its rapid delivery to the TGN, with rapid turnover in lysosomes a secondary effect of frequent passage through late endosomes. This endosomal sorting event provides a mechanism for efficiently recycling secretory granule membrane proteins and, more generally, for downregulating cell surface receptors.

Abstract
The colloidal properties of transferrin receptor, isolated from human placenta, in detergent free solution has been investigated by light scattering techniques and analytical ultracentrifugation. In detergent free solution at 293.2 K, hTfR forms stable aggregates with an apparent hydrodynamic radius of 17 nm. The molecular mass was determined by ultracentrifugation to lie between (1722+/-87) kDa (sedimentation equilibrium) and (1675+/-46) kDa (sedimentation velocity). This implies that the aggregates are build up from nine hTfR dimers. Based on model calculations, which are in good agreement with the experimental data, we propose a torus-like structure for the aggregates. Upon pH shift from pH 7.5 to 5.0 or removal of the N-linked carbohydrate chains, formation of larger aggregates is induced. These aggregates can be described in terms of porous fractal structures. We propose a simple model, which accounts for that behaviour assuming that the aggregation is mainly due to the reduction of negative surface charge.

Abstract
Rab GTPases are associated with distinct cellular compartments and function as specific regulators of intracellular transport. In the endocytic pathway, it is well documented that Rab5 regulates transport from plasma membrane to early (sorting) endosomes. In contrast, little is known about the precise localization and function of Rab4 and Rab11, which are believed to control endocytic recycling. In the present study we have analysed the protein composition of Rab5- and Rab11-carrying endosomes to gain further insight into the compartmental organization of the endocytic and recycling pathway. Endosome populations of this transport route were purified by immunoadsorption from endosome-enriched subcellular fractions using antibodies directed against the cytoplasmic tail of the transferrin receptor, Rab5 or Rab11. Endocytosed transferrin moved sequentially through compartments that could be immunoadsorbed with anti-Rab5 and anti-Rab11, consistent with the theory that Rab5 and Rab11 localise to sorting and recycling endosomes, respectively. These compartments exhibited morphological differences, as determined by electron microscopy. Although their overall protein compositions were very similar, some proteins were found to be selectively enriched. While Rab4 was present on all endosome populations, Rab5 and Rab11 were strikingly segregated. Furthermore, the Rab11-positive endosomes were rich in annexin II, actin and the t-SNARE syntaxin 13, compared to Rab5-containing endosomes. In an in vitro assay, the Rab5 effector protein EEA1 was preferentially recruited by Rab5-positive endosomes. Taken together, our data suggest an organization of the transferrin pathway into distinct Rab5- and Rab11-positive compartments.

Abstract
Furin and TGN38 are menbrane proteins that cycle between the plasma membrane and the trans-Golgi network (TGN), each maintaining a predominant distribution in the TGN. We have used chimeric proteins with an extracellular Tac domain and the cytoplasmic domain of TGN38 or furin to study the trafficking of these proteins in endosomes. Previously, we demonstrated that the postendocytic trafficking of Tac-TGN38 to the TGN is via the endocytic recycling pathway (Ghosh, R.N.,W.G. Mallet,T.T. Soe,T.E.McGraw, and F.R. Maxfield.1998.J. Cell Biol.142:923-936). Here we show that internalized Tac-furin is delivered to the TGN through late endosomes, bypassing the endocytic recycling compartment. The transport of Tac-furin from late endosomes to the TGN appears to proceed via an efficient, single-pass mechanism. Delivery of Tac-furin but not Tac-TGN38 to the TGN is blocked by nocodazole, and the two pathways are also differentially affected by wortmannin. These studies demonstrate the existence of two independentpathways for endosomal transport of proteins to the TGN from the plasma membrane.

Abstract
Abstract
The subcellular localization of TNF-R1 to the Golgi apparatus, initially observed in endothelial cells, has been confirmed using transfection of bovine aortic endothelial cells with a human TNF-R1 expression plasmid. The subcellular interactions of TNF-R1 and the TRADD (TNFR-associated death domain protein) adaptor protein have been analyzed in the human monocyte cell line U937 and the human endothelial cell line ECV304 by confocal immunofluorescence microscopy and by Western blot analysis of fractionated cell extracts. In untreated cells, in which TNF-R1 is found on the cell surface but principally localizes to the trans-Golgi network, TRADD is concentrated in the cis- or medial-Golgi region, but separates from the Golgi during cell fractionation. Coimmunoprecipitation studies have shown that TRADD binds to TNF-R1 within 1 min of TNF treatment in a cell fraction-containing plasma membrane. This association is followed by a gradual dissociation, which is prevented if receptor-mediated endocytosis is inhibited by hypertonic medium. In contrast, no association is detected between TRADD and TNF-R1 in the Golgi in response to exogenous TNF at any time examined. These results suggest that although TNF-R1 is predominantly a Golgi-associated protein and TRADD also localizes to the Golgi region, exogenous TNF causes TRADD to bind to TNF-R1 only at the plasma membrane.

Abstract
The ability of particular cell surface glycoproteins to recycle and become exposed to individual Golgi enzymes has been demonstrated. This study was designed to determine whether endocytic trafficking includes significant reentry into the overall oligosaccharide processing pathway. The Lec1 mutant of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells lack N -acetylglucosaminyltransferase I (GlcNAc-TI) activity resulting in surface expression of incompletely processed Man5GlcNAc2 N -linked oligosaccharides. An oligosaccharide tracer was created by exoglycosylation of cell surface glycoproteins with purified porcine GlcNAc-TI and UDP-[3H]GlcNAc. Upon reculturing, all cell surface glycoproteins that acquired [3H]GlcNAc were acted upon by intracellular mannosidase II, the next enzyme in the Golgi processing pathway of complex N -linked oligosaccharides (t1/2= 3-4 h). That all radiolabeled cell surface glycoproteins were included in this endocytic pathway indicates a common intracellular compartment into which endocytosed cell surface glycoproteins return. Significantly, no evidence was found for continued oligosaccharide processing consistent with transit through the latter cisternae of the Golgi apparatus. These data indicate that, although recycling plasma membrane glycoproteins can be reexposed to individual Golgi-derived enzymes, significant reentry into the overall contiguous processing pathway is not evident.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The transferrin receptor (TfR) regulates the cellular uptake of serum iron. Although the TfR serves as a model system for endocytosis receptors, neither crystal structure analysis nor electron microscopy has yet revealed the molecular dimensions of the TfR. To derive the first molecular model, we analyzed purified, lipid-reconstituted human TfR by high-resolution electron microscopy. RESULTS A structural model of phospholipid-reconstituted TfR was derived from 72 cryo-electron microscopic images. The TfR dimer consists of a large extracellular globular domain (6.4 x 7.5 x 10.5 nm) separated from the membrane by a thin molecular stalk (2.9 nm). A comparative protein sequence analysis suggests that the stalk corresponds to amino acid residues 89-126. Under phospholipid-reconstitution conditions, the human TfR not only integrates into vesicles, but also forms rosette-like structures called proteoparticles. Scanning transmission electron microscopy revealed an overall diameter of 31.5 nm and a molecular mass of 1669 +/- 26 kDa for the proteoparticles, corresponding to nine TfR dimers. The average mass of a single receptor dimer was determined as being 186 +/- 4 kDa. CONCLUSIONS Proteoparticles resemble TfR exosomes that are expelled by sheep reticulocytes upon maturation. The structure of proteoparticles in vitro is thus interpreted as being the result of the TfR's strong self-association potential, which might facilitate the endosomal sequestration of the TfR away from other membrane proteins and its subsequent return to the cell surface within tubular structures. The stalk is assumed to facilitate the tight packing of receptor molecules in coated pits and recycling tubuli.

Abstract
Treatment of BHK fibroblasts with V. cholerae sialidase for 20 min caused the breakdown of about 70% of total cellular ganglioside GM3 and the production of an approximately equivalent amount of lactosylceramide. On removal of the enzyme, a slow resynthesis of GM3 from lactosylceramide was observed, equivalent to about 5-6%/h of the degraded GM3. Resynthesis of degraded surface ganglioside has not previously been observed, but its magnitude is similar to previous measurements of the rate of protein resialylation after sialidase treatment. This suggests that resialylation of both lipid and protein is limited by vesicular transport of plasma membrane components through the trans-Golgi network [TGN] where sialyltransferase is thought to be localized. In contrast, resynthesis of sphingomyelin which has been degraded at the cell surface by exogenous sphinogomyelinase is about five times faster than resynthesis of GM3 and may involve non-vesicular transport of ceramide.

Abstract
To examine TGN38 trafficking from the cell surface to the TGN, CHO cells were stably transfected with a chimeric transmembrane protein, TacTGN38. We used fluorescent and 125I-labeled anti-Tac IgG and Fab fragments to follow TacTGN38's postendocytic trafficking. At steady-state, anti-Tac was mainly in the TGN, but shortly after endocytosis it was predominantly in early endosomes. 11% of cellular TacTGN38 is on the plasma membrane. Kinetic analysis of trafficking of antibodies bound to TacTGN38 showed that after short endocytic pulses, 80% of internalized anti-Tac returned to the cell surface (t1/2 = 9 min), and the remainder trafficked to the TGN. When longer filling pulses and chases were used to load anti-Tac into the TGN, it returned to the cell surface with a t1/2 of 46 min. Quantitative confocal microscopy analysis also showed that fluorescent anti-Tac fills the TGN with a 46-min t1/2. Using the measured rate constants in a simple kinetic model, we predict that 82% of TacTGN38 is in the TGN, and 7% is in endosomes. TacTGN38 leaves the TGN slowly, which accounts for its steady-state distribution despite the inefficient targeting from the cell surface to the TGN.

Abstract
Several studies have demonstrated that perturbations of intracellular oxidative balance play a key role in numerous physiological as well as pathological conditions leading to various morbidity states. In previous studies we have shown that the free radical inducer menadione rapidly and specifically downmodulates the membrane transferrin receptor (TfR) by blocking receptor recycling. This modulation is due to receptor redistribution and not to receptor loss. Here we show that other oxidant compounds, such as hydrogen peroxide, also induce a rapid downmodulation of membrane TfR and that pretreatment of cells with the antioxidant, thiol supplier, N-acetylcysteine inhibits the downmodulation of these receptors elicited by either menadione or hydrogen peroxide. This observation suggests that intracellular thiol redox status may be a critical determinant of TfR downmodulation induced by oxidative stress. Furthermore, immunocytochemical results show that, in menadione-treated cells, TfRs are associated with the Golgi complex, where normally only 20% of total cellular TfRs is found and is mainly detected in the cytoplasm as scattered punctuations. Accordingly, menadione and hydrogen peroxide also elicited a downmodulation of low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) which mediates, like TfR, the transport of nutrients to the cell and is endocytosed through clathrin-coated pits. Finally, experiments carried out using okadaic acid, an inhibitor of phosphatases, suggest that H2O2 and menadione downmodulate surface TfR via different biochemical pathways. Taken together these results suggest the existence of a potentially important protective mechanism through which iron uptake is prevented in oxidatively imbalanced cells. Iron uptake can in fact give rise to the formation of highly toxic hydroxyl radicals reacting with hydrogen peroxide and leading to cytotoxicity. Downmodulation of surface TfR may thus represent the physiological control mechanism for reducing iron uptake in diverse pathological conditions including hypoxia-reperfusion injury, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, and aging.

Abstract
Human transferrin receptors (TR) and receptors for polymeric immunoglobulins (pIgR) expressed in polarized MDCK cells maintain steady-state, asymmetric distributions on the separate basolateral and apical surfaces even though they are trafficking continuously into and across these cells. The intracellular mechanisms required to maintain these asymmetric distributions have not been located. Here we show that TR and pIgR internalize from both surfaces to a common interconnected endosome compartment that includes tubules with buds coated with clathrin lattices. These buds generate vesicles that carry TR to the basolateral border. The lattices contain gamma-adaptin and are dispersed by treatment with brefeldin A (BFA). Since BFA treatment abrogates the vectorial trafficking of TR in polarized MDCK cells, we propose that the clathrin-coated domains of the endosome tubules contain the polarized sorting mechanism responsible for their preferential basolateral distribution.

Abstract
The Golgi apparatus is a membrane bound organelle involved in synthesis of N-linked oligosaccharides which are trimmed and then lengthened by a series of sugar transferases adding N-acetylglucosamine, galactose and sialic acid in sequence. We previously published qualitative work which localized Galbeta1,4GlcNAc alpha2,6 sialyltransferase of rat hepatocytes to the trans cisternae and the trans Golgi network. We now report the use of combined stereological and immunoelectron microscopical techniques for mapping the Golgi stack composition and distribution of sialyltransferase protein in rat hepatocytes. The Golgi stack showed substantial variation in composition consisting of 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 cisternae with an average of 2.5 cisternae. Sialyltransferase labeling was mainly located in the central cisternae of the Golgi stacks irrespective of whether the stacks were oriented in a cis/trans direction using morphological criteria. Only 20% of the total sialyltransferase labeling was present in the transmost cisterna and 2% in the trans Golgi Network. The low labeling in the transmost cisterna was essentially due to the presence of a sialyltransferase negative cisterna. These data emphasize the importance of quantitation in obtaining a representative picture of Golgi enzyme distribution in three dimensions. They indicate that central cisternae, rather than the transmost cisterna and TGN, function in sialylation along the secretory pathway of rat hepatocytes.

Abstract
Carboxypeptidase D (CPD) is a recently discovered membrane-bound metallocarboxypeptidase that has been proposed to be involved in the post-translational processing of peptides and proteins that transit the secretory pathway. In the present study, the intracellular distribution of CPD was examined in AtT-20 cells, a mouse anterior pituitary-derived corticotroph. Antisera to CPD stain the same intracellular structures as those labeled with furin and wheat germ agglutinin. This distribution is distinct from carboxypeptidase E, which is localized to the secretory vesicles in the cell processes. The perinuclear distribution of CPD is detected even when the AtT-20 cells are treated with brefeldin A for 1–30 minutes, suggesting that CPD is present in the trans-Golgi network (TGN). Although CPD is predominantly found in the TGN, an antiserum to the full length protein is internalized within 15–30 minutes of incubation at 37 degrees C. In contrast, an antiserum raised against the C-terminal region of CPD does not become internalized, suggesting that this domain is cytosolic. The antiserum to the full length CPD is internalized to a structure that co-stains with furin and wheat germ agglutinin, but is distinct from transferrin recycling endosomes. The internalization of CPD is not substantially affected by treatment of the AtT-20 cells with brefeldin A. These data are consistent with the cycling of CPD to the cell surface and back to the TGN. The TGN localization of CPD raises the possibility of a role for this enzyme in the processing of proteins that transit the secretory pathway.

Abstract
Primary rat hepatocytes and two hepatoma cell lines have been used to study whether high mannose-type N-glycans of plasma membrane glycoproteins may be modified by the removal of mannose residues even after transport to the cell surface. To examine glycan remodeling of cell surface glycoproteins, high mannose-type glycoforms were generated by adding the reversible mannosidase I inhibitor deoxymannojirimycin during metabolic labeling with [3H]mannose, thereby preventing further processing of high mannose-type N-glycans to complex structures. Upon transport to the cell surface, glycoproteins were additionally labeled with sulfosuccinimidyl-2-(biotinamido)ethyl-1,3-dithiopropionate. This strategy allowed us to follow selectively the fate of cell surface glycoproteins. Postbiosynthetic demannosylation was monitored by determining the conversion of Man8-9GlcNAc2 to smaller structures during reculture of cells in the absence of deoxymannojirimycin. The results show that high mannose-type N-glycans of selected cell surface glycoproteins are trimmed from Man8-9GlcNAc2 to Man5GlcNAc2 with Man7GlcNAc2 and Man6GlcNAc2 formed as intermediates. It could be clearly shown in MH 7777 as well as in HepG2 cells that demannosylation affects plasma membrane glycoproteins after they are routed to the cell surface. As was determined for total cell surface glycoproteins in HepG2 cells, this process occurs with a half-time of 6.7 h. By analyzing the size of high mannose-type glycans of glycoproteins isolated from the cell surface at the end of the reculture period, i.e. after trimming had occurred, we were able to demonstrate that glycoproteins carrying trimmed high mannose glycans become exposed at the cell surface. From these data we conclude that cell surface glycoproteins can be trimmed by mannosidases at sites peripheral to N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase I without further processing of their glycans to the complex form. This glycan remodeling may occur at the cell surface or during endocytosis and recycling back to the cell surface.

Abstract
3'RACE PCR was used to survey Rab transcripts synthesized by the human hematopoietic K562 cell line. Among the identified GTP-binding proteins, Rab11 was discovered. This result was unexpected since Rab11 previously had been found associated with polarized and secretory cells. Rab11 mRNA was abundant compared to that for other Rabs in K562 cells; protein levels represented 0.05-0.1% of total membrane protein. Localization of Rab11 using confocal immunofluoresence microscopy revealed extensive overlap with transferrin in recycling and/or exocytic compartments and suggests that Rab11 in non-polarized and non-secretory cells may play a role in the trafficking and recycling of internalized proteins.
